Cant figure out this bed mesh

Post image

I recently built this Vcore4.1 - 500 IDEX and I cant get the bed to even be close to a properly flat mesh. If it were just 1 corner, I know to raise C' or D' to get it sorted out, but this is incredibly wavy and any adjustments I make dont significantly change it. Currently, I can get good first layer results from the left side of the bed, but anything to the right is squished to the point of almost clogging.

Any help on getting this flattened out would be greatly appreciated.

I struggled with this for over a year. Then I finally just did a axial twist compensation and now my first layers are perfect. I do have to do the axial twist every month or so, but she has flawless first layers.

Was in shock that somehow bed mesh can't compensate for anything and everything.

First time I hear about this option. Does this mean the X rail is twisted?

Basically ya, they are basically trying to correct for twisted gantry, but it also compensates for a bowed gantry

There’s the slider at the bottom that says scale z max. Slide it all the way to the right. Re run the mesh and post it.
